RIP Rolly Crump, a one-of-a-kind legend and renais

RIP Rolly Crump, a one-of-a-kind legend and renaissance man. … Posted @withregram • @waltdisneymuseum Disney Legend and True Original Rolly Crump passed away at the age of 93. Rolly originally joined Disney as an animator in the 1950s before transitioning to an Imagineer. Rolly’s unique style and vision heavily contributed to the Haunted Mansion, Enchanted Tiki Room, it’s a small world and the iconic Tower of the Four Winds used at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair. He even appeared alongside Walt Disney on television to showcase these attractions while they were still in development. Rolly was named a Disney Legend in 2004 and was even honored with a window on Main Street at Disneyland.
